Chapter 1:
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Jump over the water, jump over the water!!" Jessica yelled to her best
friend, Stephanie, who gave her a frustrated look and continued trying to
hook-shot over the gaps of water in the boss chamber of the Zora Temple.
"Darn it! Why do I keep missing? My aim isn't that bad, is it?" Stephanie
groaned at nobody in particular.
"I can answer both questions!" Jessica retorted in a matter-of-fact tone.
"You know, I really don't wanna hear, okay?" Stephanie said through
gritted teeth.
"As I was saying, you should jump over the water, and your aim is pretty
bad,"Jessica smirked.
"You think you could do any better? You never play. You just watch me. But
you won't actually pick up the controller and play!" Stephanie snapped.
"Well, I have the brains, and you have the so-called skills."
"Yeah, you're a regular Princess Zelda, Triforce of Wisdom..." Stephanie
muttered under her breath.
"Thank you. I see that you finally understand!"
"You can't be that smart; you don't even know sarcasm when you hear it."
"Whatever, I mean--"
"NO!"
"What's wrong with you?"
"Stupid Morpha just killed me again!"
"As I was saying.--"
"I can't believe this! This is the third time already!"
"That's pitiful."
"Yeah, like you could do better."
"Is that the only thing you can say? 'Like you could do better! Like you
could do better!' Yak, yak, yak!"
"Oh, shutup!" The telephone rang, and Jessica went to pick it up.
"Hello? Oh, hi, Kristin! How are you doing? Well, I'm fine, I just..."
Jessica continued to talk to one of her many friends on the 'phone, while
Stephanie consulted her game-guide to see what she did wrong.
"I don't believe her, I mean..." she muttered to herself as she flipped
absent-mindedly through the pages of the guide.
"Did she really? Omigod, I can't believe it!" Jessica yammered on.
Stephanie looked up at the screen to see Link facing her.
"God, he's cute..." she said aloud.
"Why thank you, miss," he responded. Wait, responded?
"Yeah, I know, I just..." Jessica continued. Suddenly there was a shrill
scream. "Oh, I have to go now. My other friend just had another freak-
acident on her game. Right, see you tomorrow. Bye!" Jessica walked into the
room to find a pale Stephanie with her back to the wall, mouthing a silent
scream. "And what happened now?" she said sarcastically. All Stephanie
managed to do was point at the screen, still silently screaming. Then,
before looking at the screen, Jessica said, "Oh, what, did Link come to
life?" Jessica looked at the television screen. "Holy..." 'I really should
keep my big mouth shut.'
"Is this a bad time?" Link said jokingly.
"Absolutely not!" Jessica cooed, leaning closer to the screen.
"Well then, Navi, do your stuff!" Link said, turning to his tiny fairy,
which looked just like a ball of light with wings.
Suddenly, everything swirled around the two girls. The floor began to fall
away, the walls and ceiling disintegrated. Jessica started to scream.
Everything was black.
